Bhishma ekadashi in 2012
Bhisma
Ekadashi, or Bheesma Ekadasi, is observed in the Magha
Month (January – February) in South
India, especially in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka.
In 2012, the date of Bhishma Ekadasi in India is February 3. It is
believed that the Vishnu Sahasranama Stothram (thousand names dedicated to Lord
Vishnu) was revealed to the Pandavas on this day by Bhisma, who was lying in a
bed of arrows after the Great War in Mahabharat.
This particular period in traditional Hindu calendar has numerous
auspicious dates dedicated to Bhishma.
Some of the important days
are Bhishma
Ashtami, Bhisma Dwadasi and Bhishma Ekadasi.
It is believed that Bhishma chose this period to leave his body and
merge with the Supreme Soul (Brahman).
The Vishnu Sahasranama Stothram was revealed to Pandavas by Bhishma
in the presence of Lord Krishna, who is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
It is believed that listening to Vishnu Sahasranama Stothram leads to Moksha.
In North
India, on this particular day Jaya Ekadashi is observed.
